Overview

OECD-FAO Agricultural Outlook 2011-2020 The seventeenth edition of the Agricultural Outlook, and the seventh prepared jointly with the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), provides projections of production, consumption, trade, stocks and prices as well as an evaluation of recent market developments, issues and uncertainties, for a number of commodities, including for the first time, fish. The report highlights the fact that projected, higher average prices may encourage investment necessary for production to respond to rising demand. However, high prices also raise important concerns about increased food insecurity. Price volatility creates uncertainty and risks for producers, traders, consumers and governments, and is a high priority in the G20 discussions on agriculture. This edition examines the forces driving the phenomenon and offers considerations to policy makers on helping to reduce and manage the volatility. Outlook in Brief : Chapter 1. Overview; Chapter 2.
